FormscanBy Donal Murphy - There is some very interesting contenders in this big field contest. The one I'll row in with is SPEAK EASY, who is out of nine time track winner For Bill. The son of Beneficial won a point-to-point at Kilworth in March, and then changed hands for 220,000 pounds at the Cheltenham Festival Sale. He is now under the care of Joseph O'Brien, and he said of the bay gelding in a recent Racing Post stable tour: "A nice horse. He won a point-to-point for the Doyles last year and seems to jump very well. He'll be ready to run in the next couple of weeks." Gordon Elliott saddles three in this two mile contest, with Dortmund Park sure to attract plenty of market support. The Gigginstown House Stud owned gelding won two AQPS races in his native France before he was sold for E230,000. Jack Kennedy, fresh from his heroics at Clonmel on Thursday, will be aboard the son of Great Pretender, and it'll be interesting to see how he fares. Elliott also saddles newcomer Sidetracked (bought for E150,000 last June) who is a half-brother to the mighty Cue Card. Willie Mullins is represented by Scarpeta who won three times on the level in the UK for Mark Johnston. He was bought for 42,000 guineas at Tattersalls in October, and it would come as no surprise if he managed to score here on his debut over flights. None of the aforementioned contenders have experience over hurdles, and so Dis Donc is perhaps a safer alternative after going down narrowly on his last two outings at Thurles and Down Royal respectively.
